This is a game that rewards understanding rather than rushing. It teaches you that progress comes with consequences: Expand too fast, and your people lose stability. Grow too rich, and you might forget happiness. But find harmony — between food, influence, faith, and trade — and your cities will thrive like living organisms. Humankind asks for patience and nuance. It’s not about winning quickly, but about feeling the rhythm of history — shaping a world that makes sense both strategically and morally. If you play this game not to dominate, but to understand, you’ll discover something rare in modern gaming: A sense of peace in creation. A quiet pride in growth. And the realization that civilization, at its best, is not built on conquest — but on wisdom. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — A masterpiece for those who think deeply and play with heart.

After playing civ 7, this shit is fire. It isn't perfect, but it's way better. Also, the images and esthetic is always a complete success to me

I get lost in this game. I create my own scenarios in my head as I play, lost for hours. It's tedious, but in a very satisfying way. I prefer this to Civ6, which I also love. Civ2 is fantastic, but I can't run it anymore. Yes, I'm old. Anywho, great game.

Boy did they turn this game around. I love it when studios stick with their product and make it amazing. This had an OK launch, but it just wasn't quite there yet. But now, it's amazing. If you like the Civ games and have been bummed out about how bad 7 is, this is the answer. Better than the Civ series in basically every way.

I rear-ended a mammoth, and the game let me. I was a Civ player. No, a Civ fanatic. Through all its weird AI decisions, broken mechanics, and constant DLC ransom notes, I stuck by it. Because it was Civ. Then I played Humankind, and suddenly, everything made sense. Claiming territory is logical. No more border gore where some rogue settler wedges a city between your well-planned empire like a bad Tetris move. You claim land, expand naturally, and your cities grow as part of the territory, not as weird, isolated dots on the map. The whole process—from hunting and foraging in the early game to skirmishing over land without diving into full-scale war—feels organic. You experience the evolution of your people, rather than just clicking “next turn” until someone nukes Gandhi. And let’s talk about the personality. This game knows it’s a game. It doesn’t take itself too seriously—until it does. You’re having a great time, expanding, feeling clever… and then suddenly, your ambitious little border clash turns into an existential crisis. It has humor, but it also punishes hubris. Think you’ve got it all figured out? Congratulations, your neighbor just turned into an unstoppable war machine because you underestimated them. And the combat? Rear-ending a mammoth isn’t just an option—it’s a tactic. Flanking, blocking escape routes, ambushing—it all matters. No more mindless unit stacking. Battles are mini-strategic puzzles that feel earned. I started playing Humankind out of spite for Civ VII. I haven’t stopped playing since. It’s the first 4X in years that made me want to start over again and again—not to “optimize” a build, but because it’s just fun. Civ and I had a good run. But, hey… it’s time we saw other people.
